  • Updating my blog and online 'window' shopping has become a routine habit for me!
    I do not know why or how i behave like this but it just happens to be so.

    Nonetheless...I enjoy sharing moments of my kookoo life with whoever that's interested in browsing this page...haha
     

    So, as always, it had been a very long day...
    What a great way to unwind after work with a good ol' Original Handburger and chilled tomato with stuffed coleslaw ! Everything was literally homemade, from the bun to the dippin sauce!
    Down that with a bottle of Thomas Kemper Ginger Ale.....Awesome-ness!

    That was my first visit and it will not be my last, there are a lot of irresistible patties that I can't wait to get my hands on! teehee



    So I was dingdonging afterwork and I came across this cape/coat/drape...whatever you call it!
    The material feels great to the touch but the pricetag suprised me momentarily... and yes it was S$1,299!!!


    So again, what do you do afterwork.... no I wasn't partying with the dudes...
    I was scraping through the crowd, trying to find my way home!
    The city's has been a mad house lately, I literally could not walk in a straight line. It feels like I'm go karting on heels!

     
    SMILE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


    AWWWWWWW!!! Aren't they cute!


    I've been wanting to drop by for a visit... and I finally did!!!


    I had one of the best breakfast (namely EGGS) I've had in a long time!
    The food here is pretty much on par with Kuppa; and the best thing is I do not have to fly my ass across the country to have this, hahaha!!!
    That morning I had the Eggs Benny with Leg Bacon on Corn Waffle.
    Besides the oogly looking crockery; the eggs, bacon and corn waffle was a great combo and I loved it!!!
    A lot a lot that I could not stop talking and thinking about it!
    Mind you, this is my FIRST time trying the Eggs Benedict....unbelievable but TRUE...
    So this lil' Eggs Benny is now stored in my food memory bank and it's there to stay! WOOHOO!!

    (I suppose you can tell how I excited I was and am about this dish. It literally made my day and I had a hallelujah moment from the first munch!)


    Grace - the Happy Camper
    What a great way to spend your weekend! Food hunting!!!!


    I pondered and pondered.... it's now at home with me!
    I love the smell of leather, it's such an irresistible drug!


    Till then, here's wishing you an early Joyous Christmas and a Happy New Year (if I don't see you before that)!!!



    Love, G

    then.... lots and lots of buttery smooth Aburi Salmon Belly Sushi
    To die for!!!

    we had 30 out of the 60 dishes offered in the buffet menu...WOOHOO! that was a record for me

     
    Let's finishi off the meal with soft, creamy and fluffy Cheesecake...
    the cookie base was so good.... the dessert was simple yet delicious
    I wanted seconds BUT they freakin ran out... WHAT THE!
    I only had one! DOH!


    so... 1, 2, 3... going, going, GONE!

  • Dear Hunnies,

    I'm back with more to share....
    hehe... let's start with some food!!!


    I dunno why we ordered this... but yes it wasn't as bad as what people wrote on the internet....
    it does taste better with sushi than eating it like a pack of slime... HAHAH!!!


    Dinner at Akashi never never fails me.... i don't know why i've never stepped into this place b4 the reno...
    it's always this dark corner that never seems to entice me to explore what's behind the black wall
    now that the darkness has been removed... it's been one of my to-crave-for places for a relaxing, indulging dinner.


    this is my first time trying this... and let's just say... it's a BEAUT!!!!


    YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL..... TO ME!!!
    Yes i dedicate this song to you. i bet my lil cousin Anson would scoop up the fish roe before i get to eat the sushi... haha!


    Ahh... my NNIEN... what more can a girl ask for for her birthday..
    she actually came to visit... and watched a lame/sick/silly BUT ridiculously FUNNY movie with me...


    OOHHH!!!!!!!!! Isn't it LOVELY!!! A WORK OF ART... HHAHA!!!
    NNIEN, we have to come back again.... and yes i do owe you one session @ Butter...
    So be gentle...

    WEEKEND - time for TLC for who else but ME
    Weekend attire....my comfort...things that wind me down
    Weekend = strictly no black, unless it matches the outfit i wanna wear


    Start the day with the good 'ol Soy Bean Milk and the greasy banana fritters ~ trust me it's GOOOD!


    So mum dragged me to Gusttimo again... this is our 4th visit
    and today we opted the GRANDE - that's 4 in one
    Never fails to perk up my taste buds! WOOT!!!!
    Buzz me if you ever need a Gusttimo tour guide 


    This ends my photojournal entry...

    Till then, goodnight!

  • It's been a while since my last departure, blame work? blame procrastination
    But I still find comfort writing here...hence i logged in tonight.

    It seems like I've created a pattern of blogging and window shopping online...whenever i feel like writing, haha!

    Here, i would like to share with y'll some of the hat's happened in the past months


    Atop the Singapore Flyer...hehe!!! Fun!!!


    Guess who was at Mayday's press conference...hehe
    They're very down to earth...funny...friendly too, n Ashin is cute! i cant help it alright!
    I tossed n turned whether to go or not to go to their concert but after the concert ended 2 weeks back;
    I made a small promise to myself NOT to miss out their concert next year...if they do have one!!!


    On the set of a chinese talk show.... quite an interesting experience
    Here, they're preparing to shoot the cooking segment, see the producer briefing the chef on what to do, the sequence n all.


    Some photography work i did months ago for the upcoming F1 season...
    this is unedited... and i quite like the colour combination n the styling... it turned out not bad
    G.H Mumm cocktails.. YUM!!!

    we recently did a halloween drinks shoot, let's just say the drinks combo arent the best of the lot!



    It won't be my blog if there' aint no food shots!!!

    I don't know what went through my mind that night....
    All i said was: can i have bamboo clams tonight? can i try???
    HEHE... boy it was so FRESH and AWESOME!!!



    A French Affair
    A birthday treat for mum...!
    Escargot....Fantarsteek! all i need is some bread and wine!


    Happy Birthday Mummy!!!!
    how wonderfully sweet of them to treat us with Fondant chaud au chocolat, a warm melted 70% dark chocolate cake served with chocolate sorbet
    we were surprised with the sweet gesture and LOVED the dessert so much, i literally swept the plate clean!

  • Dear lovelies...

    looks like there's another short absence to updating this blog again...
    been a lil restless and really tired. I absolutely used up all my energy in July, the fist week of August pretty much felt like stony!

    really literally....i felt like a zombie for the entire week...

    so many things going on at ones...people screaming down your eardrums.....GRR!!!

    oh well, i'm really glad that the long weekend has started... *without realising*....haha!!!

    on the other hand, it's August already.... so i've declared to myself that it's a month long celebration for me and I would like to do whatever I want....ALMOST


    One of the things that makes my day brighter and fresher... none other than THE RED MANGO

    whether it's original or mango flavoured frozen yogurt.... it's something that i would go GAGA over....not the lady gaga....

    it's the Grace GAGA... hahah!

    it's late... goodnight babies!

    Luv
    Grace


    PS: should I start another blog... x0factor is about 5 years old... WOW!!!

  • Britain's Got Talent 2009

    this show has been garnering worldwide attention since Paul Potts won the competition

    this year Susan Boyle captured the attention of the judges and literally everyone

    no one expected some lady with the plain jane mumsy look could belt out a song from Les Miserables

    after making headlines around the world, in the second week of auditions, a second contender has indeed caught my attention

    12 Year Old Shaheen Jafargholi, he is so cute yet his presence were commanding and his performance took my breathe away

    i way hitting the play button over and over again, he initially auditioned with the song Valerie by Amy Winehouse but Simon Cowell gave him the NONO

    Singing Micheal Jackson's Who's Loving You - walla......ladies and gentlemen, meet the new child star, he is adorable and so talented

    I adore him 

    check out his performance at the following link:

    Enjoy!!!

  • after a year of clean break, there comes a new beginning

    from the sunny moments to rainy days, there comes the rainbow shining through the sky

    brightening my days with joyful colours of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, magenta and purple

    my joys of life revolves around good food, good music, good friends and good sleep 

    wide awake @ precisely 2.43am, deciding what to do with my blog, i started revamping what was old into something refreshing

    i began typing away, putting my thoughts into "paper", as a means and effort to share a part of my life with friends and family who care and are curious about my journey in a new city

    the past 10 months have been fun, crazy, tiring and most importantly it has been a life transforming journey so far; and it is still going on and on and on

    day by day, new things comes along, it comes knocking at your door, well mostly through emails - sorry girls, really there are no hotties here - AT ALL

    there are many hair pulling moments where you want to strangle people and hit the pause button to take a breather

    but when all has been given the OK, everything is worth the hardwork, pain and stinky sweats - hehe

    so to wrap it up, this is me now... all tired but smiley as always - i try to

    till then,

    G
